The row over using surveillance information to spy on people has intensified after its was revealed that 1,400 requests to snoop on the public were made every day last year.

Councils, police and the intelligence services asked more than 500,000 times for approval to access private email and phone data.

Each one allows public authorities access to communications data – which includes records of phone, email and text messages – but not their content.

The Home office says the new figures “offer reassurance that the powers are being used appropriately”.

Big Brother continues to spy on American public

 

Petoskey News-Review
Friday, October 2, 2009

We’d like to believe that with a new administration in charge, the USA PATRIOT Act in its current form would be headed for the scrap heap.Alas, we would be wrong. 

Despite campaign protestations about breach of civil liberties legalized by the 2001 law, the Obama clique seems pleased as punch to be the new puppetmasters behind unlawful government spying on the American public.

That includes shifting through your library selections, your business records and listening in on your phone calls. So be better be careful what you say about Barack Obama, just like you had to watch your mouth about George W. Bush.

You’ll recall the knee-jerk reaction to the Sept. 11 attacks resulted in Congress — Democrats and Republicans — approving this full frontal assault on civil liberties before the ash had even had a chance to settle at Ground Zero.
But it’s been eight years. During those years the PATRIOT Act in conjunction with other Bush-era dismantling of Constitutional safeguards have left honest, God-fearing, taxpaying Americans on the same radar screen as al-Qaida operatives.According to the Associated Press and other reports, the Obama administration supports extending three key provisions of the Patriot Act that are due to expire at the end of the year. 

Those provisions, along with roving wire taps and “lone wolf” monitoring, also give the government access to citizens’ library records, bringing howls of protests from librarians, civil libertarians and conservatives alike.

Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich has informed  Sen. Patrick Leahy, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, that the administration is willing to consider stronger civil rights protections in the new law “provided that they do not undermine the effectiveness of these important (provisions).”

That’s what we call lip service.

Ideea instalarii de cutii negre pe masinile din UE aduce in prim-plan temeri legate de monitorizarea constanta a soferilor

de Vlad Barza HotNews.ro
Planurile CE de a instala pe automobile cutii negre in stilul celor de pe avioane au pus pe jar grupurile care apara libertatile civile, scrie presa engleza. CE sustine ca montarea unor cutii negre ar putea ajuta politia sa afle repede cine e vinovat la un accident si ar simplifica acordarea despagubirilor de catre companiile de asigurari. Opozantii spun ca masura ar duce la crearea unui “stat Big Brother” unde soferii vor fi monitorizati constant. Cutiile costa cam 550 de euro si sunt de marimea unui pachet de carti de joc.

Avionul de supraveghere care poate zbura cinci ani non-stop! :

Pare sa fie o tenologie extraterestra, insa aceasta aeronava nu este nici pe departe un OZN. Avionul, denumit Odysseus, este alimentat de la Soare si poate sta in aer vreme de cinci ani in continuu, noteaza, vineri, “Mail Online”.
Configuratia sa, in forma literei Z, se intinde pe 150 de metri, astfel ca poate fi ajustat pentru ca el sa absoarba cat mai multa putere solara. Pe timp de noapte, avionul zboara intr-o linie dreapta pentru eficienta aerodinamica, energia absorbita pana atunci incarcandu-i bateriile ce alimenteaza motoarele electrice. Aeronava a fost creata astfel incat sa poata atinge altitudini intre 18.000 si 27.400 de metri, astfel ca poate fi folosita pentru supraveghere, comunicatii si monitorizarea mediului inconjurator, cum ar fi schimbarile climatice.
Compania americana Aurora Flight Sciences a dezvoltat aeronava in cadrul programului “Vulture”, cu ajutorul BAE systems (cea mai mare companie europeana din industria apararii - n.r), dezvoltate de laboratoarele CS Draper si corporatia Sierra Nevada, mai precizeaza sursa citata.
